Truly a Series of Unfortunate Events

Probably my favorite cdrama. It's a fast paced dark-comedy, with some wacky plots that manages to have a lot of comical moments and irony while still maintaining quite solid and touching moments.

The directing and editing ARE AMAZING! The main actors bounce off each other effortlessly, showing the audience their chemistry and why they were choosen to portray such complex characters.

The five first minutes of the show is a master class of how to write a witty, engaging and interesting show. From the start, I was intrigued by the unlucky guy and how he crossed fates with THE problem (aka the female lead).
The maestry of the writer was to create two characters that are pretty much the antithesis of one another and make them depend on each other, which leads to a very funny and hartwarming story about healing and learning how to trust again (in themselves and in other people).

Whenever I think about this show I don't know if I appreciate how short it is or if I hate it. Sometimes I feel like they told a very coherent and good story with only 8 episodes. Other times I wish we could have seen them in the aftermath of everything and how they dealt with their problems, obviously they changed a lot during the show and started learning how to open up and heal but they still have a lot toaddress, like the fact that Mi Chong was suicidal and that Zhi Liao suffered a lot in the hands of people she thought she could trust and was drugged and almost r*p* d but I guess I will just have to let it go.
